We had 2 bookings with the ensuite pitchs, absolutely amazing and so clean! The site is lovely and staff very friendly.The pool was amazing and heated ( we swam in the rain) A few things i would suggest but this has not put us off at all! More dog bins around the site! The games room was lovely but possibly a few more activities in there! The shop i feel could have more items only saying this as being set away from other shops there is a limit on stuff to buy on site.Saying all that we will definitely be coming back Thankyou

We used an escape pod for one night whilst doing the Devon c2c on bikes. It was very comfortable and the little shop provided all we needed, and the helpful staff provided us with a great breakfast the following morning.

We had a great stay at Smytham’s! The facilities are excellent and the whole site is kept tidy and clean. The kids loved the swimming pool. The food vans were really handy and the dishwasher was a great surprise addition! Will definitely return

Great short stay

Shenton, Richard - 08/08/2025

5

A fantastic site for camping. It’s mixed with lodges and static large caravans. It’s a very quiet site but very family friendly. The heated pools and area are simply first class and with warm weather you can feel like you’re in the Med. Staff super helpful and friendly. WiFi is also excellent with a £2 charge for 24 hours per device. Highly recommend

Site is easily accessible and is in a great location, friendly helpful staff and amenities that are second to none. Fire points and extinguishers on site just in case. Plenty of things to do in area but definitely need a car although there is a bus stop nearby

Brilliant

Whitting, Lora - 07/08/2025

From start to finish we had a great holiday. The added luxury of en-suite pitch was amazing. Very clean.A little play park for the young ones and volleyball net. Pool was beautifully kept and reasonably warm which was a big bonus!The games room and soft play was also enjoyed. Bit disappointing that the air hockey is £1 a game though. I think for 50p you’d get the same (if not more) money out of it in the long run as people will have a good few games at a time.Shop was always stocked well.Definitely take rock pegs as the hard standing will not take usual tent pegs and you have to camp on the shingle on some pitches - which is a bit uncomfortable so a rug or something soft underfoot would be helpful in the tent.But overall it was a wonderful stay (added enjoyment from the little fairies and dragons to spot around the place). We hope to be back next year!Thoroughly recommend.
